(asked on 19th October 2021) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of the number of warships that will be based in Devonport in each of the next 15 years.
This question was answered on 27th October 2021
Base porting of current and future classes is kept under review and is subject to the delivery of best value for money whilst maintaining operational output. However it is intended that Her Majesty’s Naval Base Devonport will remain the Base Port for Survey Vessels, amphibious shipping and the majority of the Type 23 frigates until they leave service.
Devonport will also welcome the Type 26 frigates in the late 2020s as they enter service.
